F.A.Q.
Custom Curtains North East
Got questions about made to measure curtains? We’ve answered some of the most common queries, from choosing the right accessories to tips on making window curtains for home appear larger. If you’re still unsure or want some expert guidance, our Sunderland-based team is just a call or message away.
What accessories are available?
Curtains can be accessorised with matching tie-backs, either piped or unpiped, or hold-backs which are part of the tracks and poles range.
Can you make a window appear larger?
It’s a trick of the eye but if there is enough wall space either side of the window, then add an extra 35-45cm to the length of the curtain pole. This way the Curtains sit wider than the window when pulled back, giving a bigger view of the outside.
HOW IS IT BEST TO COORDINATE COLOURS?
Decide if you are coordinating designs or colours. If designs, choose similar patterns but in different sizes. You can also pick out a single element in the curtain design and replicate it in the blinds.
If you choose to coordinate a colour palette, then choose a dominant colour from the curtain pattern and bring it through in the blinds.
What curtain heading styles do you offer?
We offer three main heading styles: pencil pleat for a classic gathered look, eyelet for a modern finish with smooth folds, and pinch pleat for a tailored, elegant effect. Each style creates a different shape and suits different rooms.
Can I use blackout lining with my curtains?
Yes, we offer blackout linings that block external light and add thermal insulation – ideal for bedrooms, nurseries, or south-facing rooms. Just let us know your preferences when placing your order.

Curtain Accessories & Options
Curtains aren’t just about fabric – they’re about the finishing touches too. At The Blinds Place, we offer a complete selection of accessories to personalise your window dressings, all available in Sunderland and the surrounding area.
Metal Poles & Finials
Elegant, durable, and available in a variety of finishes like brushed steel, matte black, and antique brass – our metal poles add a modern or industrial edge to your curtains. Pair them with decorative finials for a bespoke look.
Wooden Poles & Finials
Perfect for traditional interiors or rustic spaces, wooden poles come in a variety of stains and finishes, from natural oak to painted white. Finials can be smooth, carved, or painted to coordinate with your décor.
Hold-backs
A practical and stylish addition, hold-backs allow you to neatly sweep your curtains to the side. Choose minimalist or decorative designs to match your pole set.
Tie-backs
Fabric tie-backs offer a softer, more fluid way to frame your curtains. Match your tie-backs with your curtain fabric or opt for a bold contrast to add a touch of flair.
